A dynamic motion detection system including a plurality of active independent emitting elements, a signal capturing apparatus, and a computing apparatus is provided. The active independent emitting elements are suitable for being respectively affixed to different parts of a person to-be-tested and actively emitting positioning signals having preset wavelengths. The signal capturing apparatus is configured to capture the positioning signal of each of the active independent emitting elements and calculate a plurality of emitting coordinates according to the positioning signals. The computing apparatus is configured to control operation of the signal capturing apparatus and receive the emitting coordinates from the signal capturing apparatus. The computing apparatus defines a corresponding relationship between the emitting coordinates and the active independent emitting elements by comparing a geometry relationship among the emitting coordinates.

Dynamic motion detection system

A charge system and a charge method adapted to a bicycle are provided. The charge system includes a hub dynamo, a power apparatus, a sensor and a control apparatus. The control apparatus is coupled to the hub dynamo, the power apparatus and the sensor. The sensor is adapted to sense a riding condition of the bicycle. According to the riding condition, the control apparatus selects a power supply pattern of the hub dynamo. When the power supply pattern is selected to be a stop pattern, a connection loop between the hub dynamo and the power apparatus is turned off by the control apparatus. When the power supply pattern is selected to a first pattern, the connection loop between the hub dynamo and the power apparatus is turned on by the control apparatus, such that the hub dynamo supplies power to the power apparatus at a first rate.

Charge system and charge method

An automatic control method suitable for a bicycle system is provided. The bicycle system has a gear ratio and a toque ratio formed by an auxiliary torque and a pedaling torque. The automatic control method includes following steps: sensing a pedaling cadence and the pedaling torque of the bicycle system in a riding state; setting a first cadence threshold and a second cadence threshold according to a preset pedaling cadence while the first cadence threshold is greater than the second cadence threshold; and determining whether the pedaling cadence is greater than the first cadence threshold or less than the second cadence threshold so as to set to increase or decrease the gear ratio. In addition, a bicycle system suitable for the automatic control method is also provided.

Bicycle system and automatic control system thereof

A measuring device for a pedal plane angle of a bicycle includes a pedal body, an angle sensing unit and a central processing unit (CPU). The angle sensing unit is disposed in an accommodating chamber of the pedal body, and senses an angle of the pedal body to send an angle sensing signal. The CPU analyzes the angle sensing signal to obtain angle data of the pedal body relative to an angle of a reference plane to accordingly learn an angle relationship between the pedal body and the reference plane. The angle relationship may coordinate with other sensing units, for example, data of a pedaling force sensing unit to mutually correct and analyze the data, so as to obtain correct pedaling force information. With the angle data, whether a pedaling angle of a rider is correct can be learned to prevent sports injuries caused by incorrect pedaling angles.

A bicycle fitting method for producing a bicycle is provided. The method includes the steps of receiving a bicycle riding information and a body measurement corresponding to a cyclist. According to the bicycle riding information, a bicycle model is provided. According to the body measurement and the selected bicycle model, a bicycle frame size and a set of bicycle geometric adjustment parameters are provided. According to the bicycle model, the bicycle frame size, and the set of bicycle geometric adjustment parameters, a bicycle which fits the cyclist is produced.
